Birthday Month Contest #2! By The News Team

For our contest give away, we will be handing out 6 never to be made again SC2SEA tees. The winner of each contest will receive an all expenses paid Tee courtesy of SC2SEA! The second contest begins now!

Your mission (should you choose to accept) is to create an A3 poster that can be handed out at barcrafts, hung up around universities and otherwise generally spammed to raise awareness about sc2sea and our wonderful community.

Specifications:

The poster should be A3 at 300 dpi (that's 3508 x 4960 pixels) and posted in this thread as a JPG file for judgin purposes.
Update: DOC, DOCX, ODT (Open Office) and PDF documents are now allowed but not preferred. If you choose to submit a DOC, DOCX or ODT file, please also provide any additional (unusual) fonts used i.e. something that isn't Times New Roman, Arial, Comic Sans, etc...
- If you are the winner of the competition we will require the file in PNG, PSD (Photoshop) or XCF (GIMP) format or other accepted format.
The poster should be black and white, greyscale or easily able to be read if converted from colour to black and white.
The poster should still be able to be easily read if shrunk to A4 size.
It should mention the following things:
- The site name (sc2sea).
- The store.
- Forums.
- SEA News.
- Competitions.
- An awesome community.
- Anything else you think would help the cause.

After the 3rd of October @ 12:00PM AEST the news team will judge all applications and the winner of the competition will be announced.

A3 only is fine, just want to make sure that if we do decide to print A4 copies the font wont shrink to an unreadable size and stuff like that

downloading all the images now, time to start on this!

FS.Kezz · Wed, 26th-Sep-2012, 11:56 AM

I might give this a shot if I get a stroke of creativity in the next few days.

Gray Fox · Thu, 27th-Sep-2012, 3:26 AM

I..... do like T-shirts but.... art isn't one of my strong spots

Quick Comments

TheGentleman:

Give it a shot anyway :D, also I think Hieronymus Lex is looking for you mate!

FSDarkNemesis · Thu, 27th-Sep-2012, 12:06 PM

Same Gray Fox.... And I need more White Shirts for my Physical Training Everyday....and I'm running out of them fast. The SC2SEA white shirts are really good for that...

Having taken part in the HOTS contest unsuccessfully tells it's not worth for me to take the trouble and take part in yet another art competition again since my art sucks terri-bad.

So if you're planning to make the white shirts again, please tell me fast cause' now in this case, I need them and I need em' quick.

**nirvAnA** · Thu, 27th-Sep-2012, 1:11 PM

No more white tees sorry! Only the gray tees are left

FSDarkNemesis · Thu, 27th-Sep-2012, 1:27 PM

Sigh.... looks like the grey ones will have to do, but I really don't want to go through the Competition process again...

Simple Design Poster

With colour

Grayscale

it's a bit messy in terms of font size and positioning, but if needed, will fix them.

Quick Comments

	nirvAnA:	nice!!!!!
	xGKingdelete:	i like this one a lot

**TheGentleman** · Sun, 30th-Sep-2012, 11:46 PM

As much as jayaiwhy's design is wonderful... I wouldn't want him to feel his victory was undeserved, lets see some competition. Just 2 days left, lets see some more submissions!!

deL · Tue, 2nd-Oct-2012, 10:43 AM

jayaiwhy I'd like to see on that the inclusion of the logos for SC2 (HotS), DOTA 2 and Diablo 3 in addition to / instead of the sponsor logo. I think that would catch attention!

Also I think change it from "SEA" to the area that it's in, like for Aus/NZ say Australian or Oceanic website, and mention Southeast Asia in full not just as "SEA" because only people who are already involved in the game to a level where they'd be on this site would recognise what SEA means.

EDIT: Made this one quickly I feel the coloured text makes it a bit too busy but I like the look of the game logos on it, with the white text. It tells people what the site is about without the use of "gaming community" which can sound kinda geeky haha.

Full sizes of pic 1 HERE and pic 2 HERE.

nirvAnA:

nice!!!

jayaiwhy · Tue, 2nd-Oct-2012, 1:50 PM

I think I'll stick with my design

I didn't want to put any actual logos that relates to Starcraft because to be honest, if I wasn't a fan of SCII, if I see a poster that overly states that it's a Starcraft-related website at a campus, I'd probably go "nerds lelelelel"

Since university/pub environment is quite diverse in terms of people (what they like, etc), I just kept it simple so it doesn't appeal as a nerdy, Starcraft-only community.

PS.
I just properly read your post, you and me have completely opposite views aha.

**TheGentleman** · Tue, 2nd-Oct-2012, 3:08 PM

Amazing submissions so far

I have one final announcement. To encourage competition I will extend this competition by 12 hours if there are no new submissions by the deadline tonight. If any number of additional submissions are made then the competition will end at 23:59 tonight like originally suggested. This would be the last time I will extend the length of this competition.

Good luck all!

**nirvAnA** · Tue, 2nd-Oct-2012, 4:09 PM

I tried to do a serious entry. I really wanted to do something decent but halfway i realised i just had zero talent in this and gave up halfway to create this monstrosity.

The contest has officially ended. The winner will be announced soon enough

deL · Wed, 3rd-Oct-2012, 2:02 PM

Why the formalities? Just give Divinity the grand prize already.

Quick Comments

TheGentleman:

I'm trying to build suspense! ;)

**TheGentleman** · Wed, 3rd-Oct-2012, 6:28 PM

Unfortunately I could not give the prize to nirvAnA or Divinity as their submissions were neither the right ratio or size respectively.

In light of this I would like to congratulate ~~ChesthairMcBiceps~~ deL who comes first place thanks to his second contribution and is the winner of a sc2sea shirt which may or may not need ironing after postage.

+ [deL's poster] +

I would also like to award second place to jayaiwhy for his contribution. Your prize is this honourable mention for such a glorious submission.

+ [jayaiwhy's poster] +

Thanks once again everyone for your entries
